Just came back from a community meeting to discuss the impending crisis on the river. Boy, that stuff is scary. Don't know what to think, because no one knows for sure what will happen. Lots of "what could" happen, but, do we leave? Stay? I do have all the important papers in a box by the door. And we have flood insurance, and I figure if we leave I'm taking all my sewing machines, and quilting stuff, and the rest can take care of itself. Do you think my priorities are a little upside down? Most of the grandchildren pictures are on the computer (I guess we would take that too) and everything else can be replaced. We could probably live without half of what we have.

I will keep you and others in my thoughts and prayers, I hope you won't have much water damage

Take Care and keep us informed.

prayers to keep you safe.

You'd think they could partially open the Morganza to stop this wall of water hitting Baton Rouge, the LSU campus, then the oil refineries and then New Orleans.

Sure hope those levy's hold........

You are in my thoughts and prayers, too. At least you have your priories right!

thanks everyone. We heard at the meeting that "they" are afraid if they open Morganza they won't be able to close it, which has it's own set of problems. We are heading out of town tomorrow but back by Monday. We don't think anything big will happen before then. Who knows. And "they" said, don't try to outrun the water because it is useless, just stay in the house and wait for aid, just like what happened during Katrina!!!!! And we all know how well that turned out.

The weather has gone a little crazy this year, have all of you in my thoughts and prayers.((((((((((hugs))))))))).

oh I rememenber Katrina/Rita.. lived thru that!!! U and everyone in the path of question will be in our prayers

We are up stream from BR and NO. However we could get back water which is just as bad. Our property has not gone under since 1927. But watch on the news.....I'll be the old lady with her sewing machine under her arm being hauled off her roof by aircraft:) The Ouachita river is in our front yard and it is rising.

You are in our prayers.
